Wow... this has not even crossed my mind. It's like 5 months away? And... I'll probably buy some crappy cupcakes at the grocery store and have family over... maybe. Depends on how much wine I can stock up between now and then...

dh and i wanted to do a willy wonka themed wedding that we didn't wind up doing. so i think that's the baby's first birthday theme...thank you stephkimbrel for the idea of shopping after valentine's day and easter! :)

Not sure yet what we will do, but I do know I need to books place ASAP. The town home community I live in has a clubhouse to rent. We used it for his baptism party. It books up fast, especially in June because of graduation parties. His bday is the 17th, but we can only donut the 15th which is a Saturday. Sunday the 16th is Father's Day so a bad party day. The following weekend my dad is away on travel. I have thought about themes like under the sea, dinosaurs, or outer space. My husband mentioned a Mickey Mouse theme. It is a cute idea, but I figured in a few years LO will be picking his own themes that most likely involve cartoon characters so this is my chance to do something different

my DD was born on July 3rd. so we are doing a red white and blue themed party. Having a snow cone company come over to make snow cones for everyone and hubby works with an older gentleman who used to be a clown. So he is gonna come over and meet the kids and do balloon animals. May rent a boucne house, depends on how many kids will be over No fancy decor tho. Prob make a banner out of old fabric and get some red white and blue balloons.

Still not sure the exact theme either like a fish theme, under the sea or beach theme. All I know is that I bought 35 sand buckets to use as the goody bags for the kids.
Water games and pool party. I told my hubby to make me a sand box. But I'm thinking that is a bad idea since the kids will put the sand in the pool and might cause the pump to break down. But getting ideas on pinterest. I
